Winsor Newton uses Russian Black Sable hair to make the Eclipse line of brushes because this natural hair offers the perfect balance between stiff and soft hair brushes. A black sable hair brush has slightly more body and snap than one made from red sable hair and is softer than a hog bristle brush. Eclipse black sable (also referred to as "fitch"), is an ideal brush for your subtle blending and fine glazing needs as it leaves very little brush strokes. Additionally, the eclipse line of oil painting brushes are highly resilient and responsive which makes them excellent choices for your work with lightly thinned or "let down" oil paint colors.
